Can you tell me more details about the LSD?? I’m very interested about direct fitment from the Type R version of the DC5. And if there’s anything else I should be aware of.
For me the priority if I could start over again is: 1. Mechanical LSD 2. Engine Mount (since the gearbox is unbolted to do LSD) 3. Coilover so you can get some camber and caster 4. Tyres 5. Brake pads The car will transform into a very quick cornering machine, matching lap time with cars with way more power on any technical tracks. Power is nothing without control !
Nice list. You described the perfect TRACK car. Most of the people owning this platform does not track their car unfortunately. Most are looking for something fun to drive around.
Jason Wong I just ordered the aem v2 but I want to fabricate my own heat shield and an air duct leading from where the fog light would go to near the intake and I’m exited, it’s my first performance mod for my rsx
Hmm to some it's hard to keep the filter dry. I never had an issue with rain. I also used a hydro shield to protect the filter. It helps a lot for things like rain etc.
short ram is better if everything else is stock. doing the pvc and valve breather filters too on my wifes auto 05 dc5. it will one day be my project car converted over to 6spd.
@@trundlepufpendants short ram intakes suffer from heat soak for any engine whether is stock or not. You may not feel it as much because you drive a base but on a type S. They fall on their face when switching to VTEC on the high RPMs.

You activate the two step by smashing the gas pedal in first gear. And it will hold at the RPM that you have the launch control set at. At first I was really scared to do it until my tuner walked it over with me. If your set at 5K, the needle won’t go past 5K even with the gas pedal on the floor.
Thanks so much for the tip! I can get it to work randomly. I have it set at like 30% throttle on ktuner but it's hard to set it off. I'll have to play with the values a little bit. If I do full throttle it revs all the way up.
DC5R.Parts How come you’re gonna say PLM is better thank KTuned 😂 you have to get all the pieces welded together or the header would leak from the slip joints also it cracks, everybody knows it and if we talk about performance, yes I agree with you Skunk2 has more top end, but you have to change something else for make it fit right, is more cheaper than Ktuned yes, but with all the stuff you have to get for make it fit right is pretty much what you pay for the Ktuned, and personally the fact that a lot of people call Skunk2 “Junk2” made me doubt about them. In general skunk 2 might be better thank Ktuned but I don’t think PLM is better than Ktuned.
Ooooh wow I didn't know that. 🤭😂 I am just being sarcastic MATE!. What makes you think I don't know that. I run my own import business specific to the DC5R. Lol thanks for watching! 👊🏻🙏🏻🤙🏻
Hey man, i enjoy all your dc5 videos! Keep them coming your definitely an inspiration to the dc5 game. Im in the look out for a mint BOM and willing to pay top dollar for the right one. If you see anything out there let me know! Thanks again keep up the great work!
Thanks man! Great choices haha. Best of both worlds. People hate on my STi because it's not a Type R but they wouldn't understand. The STi is a great well balanced car! Does it all. 🔥🤙🏻
I wouldn’t recommend a cold air intake if one lives in the Pacific Northwest. Definitely think about using an RBC intake manifold its the best bang for the buck.

i have everything he has except Kpro v4 instead of Ktuner and a borla exhaust and i make 205 wheel hp (Around 235 crank). so you are right as far as crank goes but really the car makes closer to 205

Doesnt type s come factory with lsd?
kennan lynn no only in the type r
Isnt lsd just mean both front wheels pull?
If you want LSD. You can use the K20Z3 transmission from the 06-11 Civic Si
with a few modifications
Car sounds amazing! One day 😭😭
I love the sound too! I'm going to play with a different setup and see how I like it. I'm into deep sounds not raspy or "fart" can sounds.
What kind of header is on this?
An Lsd is definitely a top 5 mod as soon as you install it you will see what I am talking about.
Had to go to a short ram intake. Suck up too much water both on the street and track. And got tired of switching back and forth.

What kind of headers do you have?
Ktuned, which is yunk. Swapping it out soon.
Hi can you post a link to the ktuner I been looking for one for my 06 rsx type s but I can't find one
Here’s the link dc5rparts.com/collections/ktuner
What if you do full bolt ons without a tune?
You can do everything minus the RBC upgrade. It will work but you won't get the power.... The tune is what unlocks EVERYTHING!
Hey Brah, where did you get your dyno done?
Here you go brah! Shop it's in RI. ruclips.net/video/q3kWHH3Kby4/видео.html

What race header do you recommend?
Skunk2 Alpha RH or Invidia RH. Those are solid choices. 👍🏻
Invidia>KTuned>Skunk2>PLM do a little more research on CRSX and you would feel more sure.
Ktuned is definitely not better than Skunk2 header lol I'll put that last on the list.
